How much do you have to cook fruits or vegies to make them safe?
You can do a quick blanching in boiling water. Different veggies require different times. Any good food preservation book will tell you the proper time. Find a copy of "Putting Food By" or one of the Rodale Press books on food preservation.

Blanching. Quick stir fry.

No, bacteria is not killed by freezing. It's why you first blanch.

I'll have to think about this last one.
